Annette Posted September 7, 2021 Share Posted September 7, 2021 I am not sure if is the correct area to post. If it needs to be moved , please do so. Our house was broken into and trashed. As we sift through and clean the mess or just go to the spot where something was kept, we discover more stuff that was stolen. One item that was discovered missing probably isn't worth a whole lot monetarily, but is priceless to us was a pin that I won at the 2005 Dewey Beach Gathering. I believe the pin might have been called something like the "Elegant Lady and Greyhound" pin. I have attached the best picture that I have of it. I hope someone might recognize it and would have a better picture or know who may have sold them. I am trying get pictures and descriptions (and current values) of items stolen for insurance. Thanks for any help. Annette Quote Annette, mom to Banjo (AJN Spider Man) & Casey (kitty), wife to Roy.

cleptogrey Posted September 19, 2021 Share Posted September 19, 2021 If the pin was Sterling and hand crafted I would value it at $85-100. Look on eBay under vintage greyhound pins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look on eBay under vintage greyhound pins. I don't think it was vintage. I actually saw one like it on a greyhound group's Facebook page auction, but of course that was before I knew mine was stolen. Of course I can't remember which group had it in their auction. Quote Annette, mom to Banjo (AJN Spider Man) & Casey (kitty), wife to Roy.

DocsDoctor Posted September 20, 2021 Share Posted September 20, 2021 If you Google 'lady greyhound brooch' and/ or 'lady greyhound pin' and then click on 'images' many many different designs will be shown as photos, with links to the webpages those come from. I hope you will be able to identify your design, and maybe even somewhere to buy a new one!
